19 Awards in Total: A Historic Year



In November, at the Grand Prix d'Horlogerie de Genève, the brand's popular model, the "1815 Rattrapante Perpetual Calendar," won the Grand Complication category. This marks the first time a non-Swiss brand has won this category since its inception. It also secured first place in the public vote, resulting in an impressive two accolades.

This exceptional timepiece, with its remarkable accuracy requiring no date correction until the year 2100, was also voted first place in the "Watches over 40,000 Euros" category and in the public vote at "Munich Time" in Munich, Germany. At its sister event in Vienna, "Vienna Time," it was honored with the Grand Complication award. At both exhibitions, the "Saxonia Automatic" won first place in the Feminine Aesthetics category, while the "Grand Lange 1 "Lumen"" received an award in the Traditional Elegance category in Munich.

In mid-November, the Fondation de la Haute Horlogerie presented Walter Lange with the "Hommage à la Passion" award in Lausanne, Switzerland, recognizing his contributions to the revival of A. Lange & Söhne.
